So i could be wrong and this song could be about romance and relationships. But what i see it as is a song about a girl who died of a terminal illness.

The first verse is talking about a get together with all of the girls friends for a weekend, possibly to cheer up the girl and make her feel loved and supported, even though she ends up feeling uncomfortable anyways.

The second verse talks about a sickness no medicine could tame and the girl being succumbed to the sickness. The writer talks about dealing with the loss and how hard it is to have such a genuine relationship just to have it taken away from him.

I think the prechorus under this context talks about how crazy and fast such life occurrences can happen, and there's no time to think about what to do next, all of it is a blur and doesn't slow down until its over.

The chorus in my opinion is a pledge to the girl to always be there for her even when others walk away or give up on her. Talks about the special bind between the two, and how he will always be there
